Heh.  Try the one in the 200q20v.  $400+
Idle switch and potentiometer.

Luckily, the previous owner replaced it right before I bought it, so he
soaked the cost of it, not me.  Turns out the car didn't need it,
either...bad WGFV, which the ECU thought was a bad throttle sensor.

My mechanic:
"Oh, hey.  You're lucky.  Not an inexpensive part in the entire car."
(this was shortly after buying the car.)
